And then I cook it and eat it, will I die.

It's oxidation. Should be fine to eat.

You've already cooked it and are eating it while reading this, but... I dunno. All the best

As already said, it's oxidation and should be fine as long as it's not horribly stinky or anything

The brown part would be the ricin. Do you have flu like symptoms?

And also, just to be on the safe side....
Stay near a loo tomorrow

Make sure mince is always thoroughly cooked.
There could be bacteria on it that if not cooked through is going to cause an unpleasant time.
The likes of Steak for example only need to cooked each side as that's the only parts that will have been exposed to harmful bacteria.

Can't bate a hape of salty fried mince loaded with ketchup after a feed of midweek beer

you'll be grand until it starts to go green

The trick is to let it get old enough so that it grows new stuff. Chop down the new stuff down, fry it up and you have yourself one hell of a meal!
